Reading Strategies
  1. Making Connections: Connect text with other text, to myself, and the world
  2. Prior Knowledge: Use what I already know to understand something new
  3. Inferring: Figure out what it really means from clues in the text
  4. Evaluating: Making judgments about what I read and explain why
  5. Questioning: Why? I Wonder? What If? Ask questions to understand what I'm reading
  6. Visualizing: Create a movie in my mind while I'm reading
  7. Summarizing: Tell what's important
  8. Synthesizing: Put the pieces together to see them in a new way
